6. Late Night Wake Up Call: You wake up to screaming, I wake up to a furry paw batting at my face.

7. Play Dress-Up: Scout the Cat has a fondness for getting into my purses while your daughter likes wearing your shoes.

8. Kills the Sex: Whether it's coming into the room because of a bad dream, or scratching at the door, both have a tendency to be needy at the worst times.

9. Co-Sleeping: If you so choose to do this, you eventually have to wean both for your own sanity. Though, Scout and I still have our snuggle time.

10. Falls Asleep In Odd Places: My cat would fall asleep on a bed of pointed rocks if it couldn't kill him. Kids also fall asleep in, what you would think, would be the most uncomfortable places -- the toilet, really?

11. Photos: You like to show off photos of your loved one, which is exactly what I'm doing here.
